I assume you want pups? I bet he shapes up now. In my experience a young female soon shapes up a fat slob gerbil  |

Why don't you check out my website  : www.gerbilbreeding.comIt should answer most of your questions. You definately want to leave the male in, as he helps raise the babies. As for what to feed her, you can add some extra protein to her diet - dry cat food, mealworms, waxworms, crickets, egg, etc... |

Food: extra protein is good, a little dreied cat food does fine
Gerbil dads are very hands on BUT they will mate as soon as the pups are born
So if a second litter is OK leave dad in.
